I am a native of Utah and have been doing research for almost 20 years. I have a lot of resources at my fingertips. I also have access to lots of Utah records and know where you can get specific documents to help find your ancestors. Especially of interest, very early Ogden City Cemetery burial records.

I welcome any questions you might have. Don't hesitate to contact me if you need me to help you. I have decided since I am asked so much to do genealogy research and information about obituaries, etc. that I can't process these requests for free. I don't mind doing the work for you but it does cost me gas and time.I am contemplating covering several other counties in genealogical research. Just ask me I might know how to help you get pointed in the right direction.

If you have any questions or requests please email me Utahtombstonelady@hotmail.com.

For all the people whom have taken the time to take photos for my memorials...a BIG THANKS!

Please don't create duplicate memorials for people I have taken photos or created memorials for...simply ask and I will gladly transfer ownership over to you, unless I am related to the same individual. Please be respectful and ASK ME before you take and post my photos to different web sites! You may use or post a copy of headstones to other websites as long as you post this info with it: Special permission has been given by Utahtombstonelady@hotmail.com.

I am related to several individuals in my memorials. I WILL NOT turn over OWNERSHIP for them for obvious reasons.

If you want to take over ownership you must click the link and send your contributor # so I can transfer it over to you!

I am extremely passionate about taking headstone photos in old cemeteries simply because the cemetery markers and tombstones are being disintegrated and destroyed by many elements. These markers and tombstones might be some of the oldest in Utah. The biggest threat the headstones face today are vandals. The other obvious threats are weather and time. Now is the time to photograph them while they are still intact. I encourage whomever would like to photograph and care for tombstones to do it now so that further generations will have a chance to view these headstones, if no way else than by photograph.

Sarah Justina Wilson WestonSarah Justina Wilson Weston (Find A Grave Memorial# 79103781) and other Wilsons in the Thurman Cemetery may be from the family that appears in the 1860 census here: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/M82G-1KD and the 1870 census here: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MDV3-L62In particular, it is possible that Thomas Ewell Wilson (Find A Grave Memorial# 107066520) is her brother, and maybe Eliza Wilson is her mother.I am descended from other Wilsons who lived in Fremont County, Iowa, so I am eager to discover if there is a link to the Wilsons in Thurman.Thank you.

Martha G. Pearson JenkinsThank you so much, Utah TombstoneLady, for editing Martha's memorial. I appreciate it so much. I am also going to now edit and link her to her mother and hopefully you can fix that also. Larry Draughon

RE: Ogden City CemeteryThank you very much! I have seen all the work you have done in Roy and in Ogden. I have done nothing compared to all of the work you have done. I don't know how YOU do it all.

My problem is that I find something, then I get curious about the person and go off on a jag to find out about them. I would get a lot more done if I would quit doing that, but it wouldn't be as much fun.

It is truly addicting but the condition of my yard is telling me that I need to get out of the graveyards for a while. We'll see how that goes.

I wanted to thank you for some recent edits that you did for me for Rosezella Hardy.
